Poppy Pomfrey and Albus Dumbledore, more than just good friends?

Question

I actually think they might be married.

Yes I have read the 6th book, I know what happens at the end. I dont believe he and Minerva were ever an item, it Poppy all the way!

I dont believe hes dead either, but there is also nothering to stop them being married before he "died".

Answer 1

Well, to be honest, I really don't see concrete evidence for that in the books. We really don't know to much about Madam Pomfrey, and for JKR to go back in the seventh book and write about Dumbledore's past relationships, I feel would be irrelevant. I don't mean to be flip about it, I just don't see it adding to the plot.

Here is the evidence which makes be believe that Dumbledore is dead:

1. If Dumbledore did not die, why didn't Snape from breaking the Unbreakable Vow with Narcissa Malfoy? Snape would die if he broke his promise to protect Draco. If Dumbledore were still alive, that would contradict Snape's vow.

2. What do you say about Dumbledore's portrait? J.K. Rowling specifically mentions a portrait of his being hung in the office with all the previous headmasters and headmistresses. In the Potterverse, they are only of dead people.

3. In an interview by Emerson Spartz and Melissa Anelli, J.K. Rowling responded to "The wise old wizard always dies," with "That's what I'm basically saying, yes." J.K. Rowling wouldn't lie to us. If she said he's dead, he's dead.

I don't think that JKR messes with death.

*edit*

Yesterday, J.K. Rowling said in New York that Dumbledore is indeed dead. Read the story here:

Answer 2

I must ask you before I answer this question...have you read book 6 yet (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince)? Anyway, if Dumbledore were hooked up with anyone, it'd be Minerva McGonagall.

Answer 3

dumbledore's r'ship/love life is not ms rowling's focus.if so then,she'd have them all married to each other etc. but it's harry potter series. so dumbledore's priv. life never came into light much. only glimpses n snathces of it. e.g.,in ootp book,he aced in transfiguration in school,accding 2 one examiner.'he did things w. a wand tht no one has seen'.harry can never hope or canhe ever be as powerful as dumbledore. but yet,he is d Choosen One not Dumbledore.poppy n albus r too off. minerva n albus even.at least she's closer to him.HBP-'he shall be burried in this school compound,it's wht he wanted'.

Answer 4

I think there was something goin' on there but only J.K Rowling could tell you exactly. Also because he's dead pomfrey might or might not confess in the next book.

Answer 5

NO!!jk rowling said in an interview that dumbledore is alone.not married.not involved.u r reading a bit too much in harry potter.

Answer 6

I think they are at it like rabbits! Magic rabbits that is. From a hat. A top hat. Like the trick. I'll should have stopped typing about 3 sentences ago...

Answer 7

Actually I do. Maybe not so far as marriage but I do think that there was something there. Wow I thought I was the only one who thoght that!

Answer 8

lol. and human beings ask your self why Twilight and harry potter are adversarial to at least one yet another. im no longer shocked myrtle ditched hary and attempt 2 thieve edward. the element is in harry potter they hated vampires so myrtle probable isnt the merely individual who hates bella.

Answer 9

ok, that just sounds very...what's the word i'm looking for....wierd! lol, but i somehow don't believe dumbledore is dead at all. there are lots of clues to why he wasn't dead!

Answer 10

Of course. Only true love appreciates ear muffs. LOL
